lol, read it again. Not handle like a Holden. Just it'd make me feel as dirty as the time I had to ride in a Holden, or if I had to ride in a Holden again. Unclean.

I'm sure they're great to drive, Colin keep on at me about that too. But it doesn't change that fact that they're a chick's car, and look like a trolley :down:

Haha fair enough :)

Yes

I'd say they saw you comin for the value of $50k then

That inc's the 3 motor's that went pop.. Re: what we were saying when I picked my R32 up.

Plus that POS was built in the early part of 2002. Lol @ us being charged 3k for a greddy plenum, even more LOL @ the APC dyno bill and even more LOL at the turbo "the brock shop" blew up, more LOL at the $5k we were changed to rebuilt each turbo

Add's up when the last motor built (that was sold in the car) came to 25k... But we're also talking 2002 days.. And pricing

No idea if it's still the same motor, I'd say god knows.

Coming along nicely brah. Keep your fingers crossed for today for me (and anyone else who wants to cross their fingers) :thumbsup:

crossed

Yeah I thought it would be too but it just arrived 10 minutes ago and it is looking like the worst piece of engineering I have seen in a while. The twins have been done nicely but the rest of it is hell messy. The fuel system and boot battery are neat but engine bay...yuk. It serves a purpose though, I guess. And with over 600hp at the wheels it serves it well.

It's Josh's old car btw

i loved josh's sil

30mm spacers i see?

Oh... the offset is a different color from the wheel. Guess that's why it threw me too.

Ok... so everyone keep their fingers and whatnot crossed for me for TOMORROW :thumbsup:

This keeps my 100% record intact - out of all 7 cars I've owned. I've had 7 alternator problems :D

*crosses fingers for tomorrow*

P.S. - Martin & Dan: Is Saturday or Sunday better for you guys?

hey lads need a bit of help/advice

when i bought my car, it apparently has the actuating fork boot missing.. car still drives fine but there is a bit of play in the clutch pedal.. Would it be damaging anything from driving?

also are they easily replaced? (if its fairly easy to replace ill do it myself as i like saving cash rather than getting a mechanic to do it)

cheeeeeeeeeeers

Also - I need to know what to buy so we have everything there. I'll do a Jay Car or Tandy run once the car is registered and get any switches/wire/fuses that we'll need.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By silviaz · Posted

      Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      Nothing photo worthy since last update, lots of little plumbing bits for the AAC/Cold start valves, and unfortunately I still need another couple of parts for the brake booster line and the AAC into the plenum. Otherwise it all looks good to start up engine wise, onto checking the electrics/interior
